  • 56. The Spiritual Practice of Slowing Down – Dr. Robert Gallagher

    Whether it be a maxed out Google calendar, constant email, app and text notifications, or the literal speed limit we push as we rush from one place to another to keep up with our schedule – we are all well aware of the speed that we typically live our days. This conversation with one of my favorite professors, Dr. Robert Gallagher, comes from an assignment he took our cohort through in grad school. What does it look like to intentionally pump the brakes in life during the day or week? What are examples of the spiritual practice of slowing down and how do our lives (and relationships) benefit from this intentional but countercultural choice?

      • 55. Stepping into an Unexpected Promised Land – Carrie Strickland

        Carrie and Rob Strickland are a huge part of Scott and I's origin story. Her husband, Rob, is the pastor of Highland Community Church and together they minister to a specific community here in Columbus, Georgia. In this episode, Carrie tells the story of how they found themselves leading this particular church and what led to their decision to fully immerse their family by living in the community with the heart of becoming neighbors, not commuters. I love Carrie's honesty, hope, clear vision, and that anyone who encounters her is better – and more loved – than before. Prepare to fall in love with Highland Community!

        • 54. Big Feelings Days and Seasons – Aubrey Sampson

          Aubrey Sampson is an actual delight of a human being and the best kind of friend to have when it feels like the bottom falls out on life. She has been present for some of my most painful seasons of grief and loss because she has known her own hard places. Aubrey says, "what I have discovered in these dark night of the soul seasons is that God does not expect his children to act like our pain doesn’t exist or pretend we are okay. Whether you are facing a new diagnosis, the loss of a loved one, or some other trial, we can actually find real (not pretend) hope." This conversation is exactly that – a practice in facing big feelings (grief, loss, questioning) and finding God's persistent and close-proximity peace in the middle of it all.

          • 53. What Do You Call My Life – Nikki Dutton

            Welcome to another episode with just me! Let's catch up on what life has looked like lately, plus I want to share something that has been rattling around my mind. Basically it comes down to this thought – I know the name my parents gave me, I know the ways people in my life describe me, I'm familiar with the characteristics I identify myself with, but what name did God give my life before any parade of days came to be? And from that place of true origin, what does setting goals, hopes and expectations look like from who I was intentionally created to be vs. solely off of the places of progress (or applause) I see in my life.


            Luke 1:5 - Luke 2:21 referenced in this episode.

            • 52. Relationship (and Life) Advice From a Matchmaker – Ale Siekmeier

              Dating and relationships can feel like a mystery (at best) and a total miss (at worst). Whether you are swiping through apps trying to find your perfect match or are in a committed relationship that you want to keep alive and well, we can all use a little advice from a professional. Ale Siekmeier is a life coach and founder of The Nett, a boutique Christian Matchmaking Company based in New York City.  What I love about Ale is that she lives out what she preaches wholeheartedly as she cares about and curates quality connections. Regardless if you are single, dating, or married I am confident you'll be encouraged by this conversation.

                    I love in this episode when Holly shares that creating a beautiful home is meant to be a tool vs. a trophy. While I am a sucker for all things home design, I hope that my space serves a bigger purpose than being beautiful to look at. I would rather my home (or any space around me I cultivate) exist as an avenue for hospitality to make others feel welcome and important. Holly's Instagram account Shorehaven Home has quite the following, but what I love most is the heartbeat behind what she creates. This episode isn't just for those who have an affinity for interior design – it's for anyone who hopes to invite and encourage others with their lives.

                      Spending time with Ann Voskamp is incredibly refreshing and the way she talks about God – describing her observations of the Holy Spirit's interaction in our everyday life – is contagious. Ann is a New York Time's Best Seller for a few of her books linked below, but she feels most at home on her family's farm in Canada tending to her sheep (literally). She is a farmer's wife, mother, author, learner, and became a special friend in my life over this last season in a significant way. This conversation covers a lot of ground, but I am confident you'll walk away filled with encouragement about what the Lord really thinks about you.

                      • 47. Reading the Bible in Thirty Days

                        This January I did something I have never done before. Read the Bible cover-to-cover... in thirty days. Even though I've been a Christian since I was 14, I had honestly only read the Bible in bits and pieces with many unsuccessful attempts at reading in its entirety all the way through. So when I saw this plan (The Shred) by Nathan Finochio I thought to give it a try. Here's what I'll say – it was a massive challenge, but not impossible at all. This episode is with just me sharing what these thirty days looked like, how the plan works, and a few of my favorite observations.

                         

                        Here is a link to the 30-day Bible reading plan (called The Shred by Nathan Finochio) including tips for making it through to the end. HIGHLY recommend!
